Taking on 22 dates throughout September and October, The Rubens will be playing fans tunes from their new album Hoops along with some old favourites from their highly acclaimed, self-titled debut.

With their new single Hallelujah hitting airwaves across the nation, fans have been given a taste of what they can expect from Hoops.

Fans can be sure that all the new songs will translate seamlessly into the live setting, with front man Sam Margin stating: “We put more of a focus on how the songs would work in a live setting for this album. We wanted to write songs that would be fun for us to play live as well as fun for our audience to listen and move to.”

The band can’t wait to unleash their new tracks live, so don’t miss your chance to see them on this run of shows. Melbournian 6-piece alt-rock-soul outfit Saskwatch and Central Coast folk rock duo Winterbourne will be joining the bill for most of the dates.Hoops follows on from the band’s certified platinum, self-titled debut album, which landed at an impressive #3 on the ARIA Album Chart and saw the band win an APRA Award, Nominated for Best Album at the j Awards and clocked up three ARIA Award nominations.
